I promise to wait until the entire season is up on Netflix so I can get my Doctor Who fix properly.

Just another case where the pirate copy is superior to the legal copy, and price has nothing to do with it.

Want season 7 but I need it uncut.

I'm not gonna lie, I like Rory. His entrance as The Last Centurion into the Cyber ship with a question and a message was awesome.

// cannot WAIT until he's old enough to watch Doctor Who

I hope we get an eHarmony profile of the new companion to play at the beginning of every damned episode.

Bucky Katt: fusillade762: In before the "ZOMG I HATE AMY POND SO MUCH PLEASE KILL HER ALREADY"

Any guy who hates Amy Pond is gay. And not the good kind. Yeah I said it.

I 'acquired' each episode of Series 6 the day of broadcast so I'd have the hd uncut versions of each episode. It was between 'A Good Man Goes to War' and "Let's Kill Hitler" when I actually watched a BBC America broadcast version of series 6 and saw the dreadful Amy Pond intro. My wife did not believe me when I told her about it.

t3knomanser: Great Janitor: My wife did not believe me when I told her about it.

I still don't believe it. I refuse to accept that such a thing exists.

Then try watching it on netflix, it is very bad.

teto85: PBS has the opposite problem. Many of it's Brit imports are not from BBC and the commercial time is filled with pledge breaks at the end of the programming. It really sucks when they take a two hour programme and break it in to two one hour shows and fill the 15 minutes of commercial time each hour with pledge breaks. AUUUGHHH But, yeah, the dvds are much more better.

My first taste of Red Dwarf was during a pledge drive. That half hour episode was 2 hours long due to pledge driving/begging for money, and talking over the ending credits. But that was a short pledge drive, only lasted 51 weeks.

t3knomanser: Herr Flick's Revenge: Then try watching it on netflix, it is very bad.

No, that's okay. I'll just enjoy the version that airs in the UK instead, usually hours before it airs in the US.

I do this also.
I was bored, saw it on netflix so I fired up an episode and there it was.
Blech!

BBCA has been mailing it in since they pulled the news hour and went with the "hit play button, leave office" approach to broadcasting.

it's probably clarksons fault, no telling what happened to the sets after he drove through the building

cretinbob: FirstNationalBastard: /the Christmas special introduces the new one, right?

Yes, and if you don't know how the get the proper versions before they hit Nutsax, you suck at life.

To elaborate for those that suck at life, you have two options I can think of;

1) use the various Magnet/Torrent options. These generally are available in HD within hours of airing in the UK, much sooner than they air on BBCA. I strongly recommend forcing your torrent client to use encryption when doing this.

2) use TOR and include the line "ExitNodes {GB}" in your torrc file. You may then use the BBC iPlayer to watch most everything the Beeb makes available.

I get my copy with fava beans and a nice chianti.

That sounds like it would be horribly slow, given the nature of TOR.

I already pay to get BBCA, do they REALLY think that we actually watch the commercials?
So farking sad.

sigh
Every season I think about moving to a country which gets real BBC so I dont get the editted shiat.

You mean like the USA? (You do own an internet-connected computer, don't you?)
Not that this Moffatt splooge-fest is worth it, but you can access BBC fairly easily if you want to.

/Note: I am not encouraging you to do so, just saying that it is possible and easy.

I'm rather glad BBCA is finally in HD on FiOS. Looking forward to The Doctor and the Ponds in HD.

I'd actually pay for a real BBC feed.

Have BBCA in HD but will probably not wait for it to air and prefer the uncut method. But hey at least I pay to see it if I was to chose that avenue.

*cries* I thought it said Lord of Time Shadowrunner for a minute, and I had no idea what was going on but I was suddenly very, very excited.

Great Janitor: My first taste of Red Dwarf was during a pledge drive. That half hour episode was 2 hours long due to pledge driving/begging for money, and talking over the ending credits. But that was a short pledge drive, only lasted 51 weeks.

The song at the end of Red Dwarf was great, and anyone talking over it should be shot.

I have doubts about the quality of this season. The previous season had its moments, but it sucked in places...Moffat is a much better writer than producer. He has overexposed the Angels, did a horrible redesign of the Daleks (which he is redoung one season later), and has a boner for Amy Pond that seems bigger than the one Davies had for Rose. And there are rumors of the new companion being all love interesty. I feel sorry for Matt Smith...he has a great take on the Doctor, but I am hard pressed to think of any "classic" episodes during his run.

Prepurchased on iTunes. Rollin' in shortly.
